Make-Table Action Query Column Data
Jan 30, 2006
I use a Make-Table Action query to import data from a linked table into my database. The linked table is on a network server that is automatically updated.
One column of the linked table is named "QTY/PARTIAL" and approximately 10% of the 500 records have a "P" after a number i.e. 1000 P. I would like to separate the number and the P into separate columns in the new table to faciliate being able to compute the total number "QTY".
Thanks,
Gunner...:confused:

I have 5 columns in ms access. They are as follows:
date_from, date_to, season_price, normal_price, actual_price.
However, I want to check if the sysdate is greater than date_from and less
than date_to then the value in the actual_price should be taken from the
season price for that record else the value should be taken from normal_price.
So, i would like to know how can do this? do i need to use visual basic?
I have no idea about visual basic. So, would like the complete way to do it.
Thanks

Hi,
I am extracting data from linked db2 table using access make table query. First I create a select query and can view the linked db2 data, but when I change to a make table query I get an error message, "invalid argument", when I run the make table query. There is no selection critera specified. Has anyone had this happen? and Do you know a solution?
Thanks for your support

I am using Access 2003.I have created a Makle Table Query which gives me the invalid argument error because it makes the database balloon to over 2gb. I have two questions:
1. Is it possible to get the make table query to save data in one database until it reaches say 1.9 gb and then begin saving the rest of the data in another database?
2. Is there a wey to pause or stop a make table query to see the results and then let it run again?

I have two fields the have differing dates in them. I need an action query to make the date in one field the same as in the other. I have thousands of records to do this to. Is there a way via an action query (update?) to do this or does it have to be an SQL statement query?

I have data recorded using an input mask,
"RF">L-0000;;*
to display data in the style: RFA-0001, RFA-0002 etc.
I have a make table query to join this field to another, to create a combo box look up.
Unfortunately, after I run the query, the only data from the input mask that gets imported is A0001, A0002 etc.
What have I done wrong? I guess the error must be in my specification for the input mask...
Any and all help gratefully received.

This the first time I post in this forum and I tried looking for an answer to my question before posting, so I apologize if my question has been answered previously.
Is it possible to determine, in Access 2000, the data type in a Make-Table query of a new column with null value so that it does not default to binary.
Here is my sample sql:
SELECT tblAddressBook.Name, Null AS Email INTO tblTestTable
FROM tblAddressBook;
The output is tblTestTable with two columns: Name and Email. The data type of column Email defaults to Binary. How do I make it default to Text.
Thank you.

I have a replica at work, 1 copy on the network, 1 local.. I need to add a column to the main table, getting "Operation is not supported for this type of object".... I have users that use the database but was given a change to the form/report which requires a column addition. What is the simplest way to get around this??? I'm trying not to get into major problems.

Can make a column show true or false in a table when two other columns in the table match each other? I think the statement would be like this:
If([Column1] = [Column2], True, False)
The only problem I am having is that I don't know if it can work in a table or does it just have to be in a query?

I have a table called Locations that lists Countries and Cities:
USA, Detroit
USA, Chicago
USA, New York
UK, London
UK, Liverpool
UK, Birmingham
France, Paris
France, Le Mans
I then have another table for inputing details on people I know. This table would have columns called Country and City. I've figured out how to make the Country column a "lookup column" so that I can only enter USA, UK or France. But how do I make the City column show only the appropriate list of cities relevant to the country that I've selected (e.g. Paris or Le Mans if France is the selected country).

Hey Guys!
I have a problem concerning the ability to make a reference to another column in the same query.
I have two columns. Column 1 works perfectly, but in column 2 I want the outcome of column1 (coachingdato1) inserted instead of #17-07-2006#.
How is that done???
Thanks in advance!
//JR
Column1:
coachingdato1: (SELECT Max(coaching.dato) FROM coaching WHERE sælgerdata.sælgernr = coaching.sælgernr)
Column2:
coaching1: (SELECT coaching.[1] FROM coaching WHERE sælgerdata.sælgernr = coaching.sælgernr AND #17-07-2006# = coaching.dato)

I am trying to run a simple update query to copy data from one column (Addrl1)to another column (Working_Addrl1) within the same file and I can't for the life of me figure it out. Then I need to repeat for addrl2 and addrl3 to working_addrl2 and working_addrl3.

I'm currently working with a form, which is in datasheet view. I have many rows which are combo boxes (yes/no), and the name is rather long. So each line (each row) spreads on to 2-3 pages to the right.What I would like to do is make the namebar, on top of every column, a little bit higher, so the name would be split into two lines, or three. Allowing me to make the width allot smaller.Here is an example of my problem:http://213.213.137.96/~terminal/columns.jpgSo my question is, can I change the height of the column name? Or is there some trick I can use?regardsFrímann Kjerúlf

I have a table of at least 1000 records. I want to add a new field to that table. I have the data of that field in an excel sheet. Can I import that data to the new column of my table ? If I import directly to access, access creates new set of records. I don't want this, I want my records updated.
Thanks for help

I have a list of 4300 clients. The clients' personal information and ID numbers are listed in the table BasicInformation. Another table, DiseasesAndValues lists 17 diseases and a "scheduled value" (long story short - an amount of money) for each disease. Each client has one of these 17 diseases. I would like to have a column in the BasicInformation table which shows the scheduled value for the disease that a particular client has by going back to the DiseaseAndValues table and checking to see what the scheduled value of their disease is. Alternatively, I could use a query that could enter in these values with a click of a button.

I have one database containing several tables, two of which are associated to this inquiry:
1) tblCategories
Contains two columns: CatID and Category Name
2) tblPending
Contains many columns of data obtained through upload from a web form including a column to capture the CatID and also a column for Category Name.
I wish to populate the Category Name column based on the results of data uploaded into CatID column
How is this accomplished? This is inherited project and I have very little experience with Access so just limping along...
Specific instruction much appreciated.
Thank you.

I have an Access table say Tbl_People that looks like :
ID1-ID2-Name-Age-Location
xxx-yyy-Mike-25-Essex
uuu-vvv-Jack-32-Surrey
mmm-nnn-Bob-36-Newcastle
I want to transfer this data into another table say Tbl_Output with four columns in the format below:
xxx-yyy-Name-Mike
xxx-yyy-Age-25
xxx-yyy-Location-Essex
uuu-vvv-Name-Jack
uuu-vvv-Age-32
uuu-vvv-Location-Surrey
mmm-nnn-Name-Bob
mmm-nnn-Age-36
mmm-nnn-Location-Newcastle
In Tbl_Output's 3rd column, only the Columns names: Name, Age and Location are repeated for each person and not column names ID1,ID2 (only its data xxx,yyy etc. is required in columns 1 and 2 as shown).
I was helped by rpeare with a VBA module that gives a single column output in Tbl_Output as
Mike
25
Essex
Jack
32
Surrey
Bob
36
Newcastle
The code is:
Sub main()
Dim db As Database
Dim rstElements As Recordset
Dim sName As String
Dim sNumber As String
Dim sArea As String
Dim freefile
Dim Filenumber As Integer
Dim sSQL As String
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rstElements = db.OpenRecordset("tbl_elements")
rstElements.MoveFirst
sSQL = "DELETE * FROM Tbl_Output"
db.Execute sSQL
Do While rstElements.EOF <> True
sName = rstElements.Fields(1)
sNumber = rstElements.Fields(2)
sArea = rstElements.Fields(3)
sSQL = "INSERT INTO Tbl_Output (OutputField) SELECT '" & sName & "'"
db.Execute sSQL
sSQL = "INSERT INTO Tbl_Output (OutputField) SELECT '" & sNumber & "'"
db.Execute sSQL
sSQL = "INSERT INTO Tbl_Output (OutputField) Select '" & sArea & "'"
db.Execute sSQL
rstElements.MoveNext
Loop
Set rstElements = Nothing
Set db = Nothing
End Sub
How can this be modified to get the required format data above? Thanks for any help in advance

Hi everybody,
Beginner here needs help !
I'm building a make-table query for which if the result is null (no record correspond to the set of criterias), a default message like "there was no activity during the period" would appear in the table (not a message box...I need the message in the output table). The best I could think of is an IIF function but it doesn't seem to work... Is there any way to do this without using VBA?
Thanks in advance !

Dear Access Expert
I wanted to know if it is possible to change the name of the Table which is going to be created using a Make-Table Query via code (VBA).
For example if my Make-Table query currently creates a table with the name "Table1" I want to change it to name "Table2" and then change it Back to "Table1" or "Table3" etc.... depending on the users selection.
